Quote:
CONCLUSION
To sum what is known:
* The original version Jefferson wrote did not contain the word Creator.
* A copy that John Adams wrote in his own hand did not contain the word creator
* At some point after Jefferson wrote the original draft and before it was submitted to Congress it was changed to the wording with regards to creator that we know today

So it took a couple of drafts to come up with something they were all happy with then? Which is typically your better product, your first draft or the one you turn into your boss?
